1970 914-6 all stock

All,

I am down to the last thing for this engine re-fresh: CARBS

They seem to be in very good condition and since they are missing the Porsche factory mark I am guessing that they were 'cored' on a rebuild sometime prior to my ownership

OR

Are 914-6 carbs NOT market like 911 carbs are???????

Anyway, I have not gone too deep since they are in great shape - the gaskets seem good, the floats are the brass kind but in perfect shape, the bowls are very clean,,,,,,

Can I get some direction on:

1. what to look for in a recently rebuilt carb
2. where is a good reference for setup prior to installation

Any other opinions would be well received,

Thank you Teeners


YES I KNOW

If you have had them all apart you shouid know what jets , emulsion tubes and choke sizes are in there. What spark plugs are you using? My 2.7 is running 34 chokes, I would guess your 32 are too large for a stock 2.0. Go back and set it up like it was in the beginning.
